A virulence study was performed using Staphylococcus aureus in mice. It was determined that the LD50 for the S. aureus alpha-toxin was 0.045 µg/kg of body weight toxin (a relatively low LD50). In the same mouse population, the ID50 was determined to be 200,000 cells (a relatively high ID50). What do these results taken together mean?
